Overview of Final Project Responsibilies

Anca

• Style Guide:
  • Leave sun as it is and add note with other possible translations or links for what we discussed in vlass about 'decade' etc.
  • For terms where 향명 is given I think we can include 한자, it can be helpful for those studying the text in the future. And maybe we should show 한자 for name of places and persons/historical personalities (I remember in the preface there were some names?)

• Glossary topics:
  • I think the way Lindsey selected the terms based on categories should be done for all parts. We need to re-read the text for that to be sure we include as much terms as possible.
  • Other standardized terms: I think it is good to include them and give examples with how they are used in Chinese.

• Glossary Structure&Management:
  • Language order: Chinese, Korean, English seems logic.
  • Multimedia: for tools, plant varieties, solar/lunar terms.
  • It can be a lot of work, but for terms which have additinal information, we can make them clickable so they have there own page that includes the things we found about them. I don't know much about wiki, but it seems like this would be very complex :D .

• Contribution:
  • When we show our names maybe we can show it as a link to our perso al pages. Those we did at the beginning of the semester? :D
  • Showing the contributor's name at the top of the section is more visible.
  • Is there a way to connect everything/or the sections one person makes with their personal pages? So when we go on a person's page we can see their contributions there, click on them, and go to every section they made?

It would be nice
